Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Chargers kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

The Chargers bet big and early on Gabe Hall, 24 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right.

A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. The Edwards steal is the beam this whole class leans on. On the needs board they went 4 of 8, with interior defensive lineman the one that mattered most.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Brock Bowers
They took Brock Bowers at par in the 5th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick37 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
They liked Jackson Powers-Johnson enough to skip the value, taking him in slot 37. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick69 Rnd3 Javon Bullard
Javon Bullard in No. 69 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick105 Rnd4 Tommy Eichenberg
They talked themselves into Tommy Eichenberg at Round 4, Pick 5, and the board did not agree. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick142 Rnd5 Daijun Edwards
Daijun Edwards is a better player than pick No. 142 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick183 Rnd6 Gabe Hall
Gabe Hall in the Round 6 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick226 Rnd7 Jaden Crumedy
Jaden Crumedy in the 226th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Hard to map this one onto the depth chart at all.
